Post Couple Questions

Hey guys, got my driveline all figured out just trying to get everything else figured out too now.
The Dennis Carpenter window seals and weatherstripping I hear is as close to OEM as possible where can I get these at?
Grille shells 73-77s who has the best one they all are a arm and a leg I don't want to buy one that fits and looks like crap.
Does anyone have a ZF 5speed in theres if so, how is the shifter fitment? also what tcase are you running?

Thanks
Curtis

Ther are links to FTE sponsor sites on the side of this page.

or if you are an FTE supporter..... the top of the page

May I suggest putting the topic in the title ?

Ie: Chrome grille surround and windshield gasket

For a grille shell, I would suggest the same as Mil1ion, or NPD, or denis carpenter. Those would be the only ones I would trust, or go to a junkyard and hope you find one in good enough condition to clean up, that's what I did.
Never buy body parts, tailgates, grille shells, anything from LMC truck, they are all forgein parts that are cra*py quality, and don't fit worth a dam*. If heard this over and over again from guys personaly and on this forum, one guy even had a bond fire with some of his parts.
